Target Costing Portland Equipment Company wants to develop a new log-splitting machine for rural homeowners. Market research has

determined that the company could sell 6,000 log-splitting machines per year at a retail price of $850 each. An independent catalog company would handle sales for an annual fee of $6,000 plus $59 per unit sold. The cost of the raw materials required to produce the log-splitting machines amounts to $95 per unit. If company management desires a return equal to 10 percent of the final selling price, what is the target conversion and administrative cost per unit? Round answer to the nearest cent.

Answer:S 610

Explanation:

To get a return of 10% of sales price is to have a profit of S85 which is 10% of S850.

Handling cost per unit S6000/6000 unit=S1

Other handling cost per unit S59

Raw materials per unit=S95

Target conversations and administrative cost is

850-X-60-95=85

850-X-155=85

-X=85+155-850

-X=-610

X=610

Gitano Products operates a job-order costing system and applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct materials used in p
Yanka [14]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-  

1. Predetermined Overhead Rate for a Year

= Estimated Manufacturing Overhead ÷ Estimated Allocation Base Of Direct Material × 100

= $133,500 ÷ $89,000 × 100

= 150%

2. We have a need the value of overhead applied and overhead incurred, to calculate the value of over applied and under applied overhead.

Overhead Applied = (Purchase Of Direct Material + Opening Value of Direct Material - Closing Value of Direct Material) × Predetermined Overhead Rate

= ($139,000 + $27,000 - $13,000) × 150 ÷ 100

= $153,000 × 150 ÷ 100

= $229,500

Overhead Incurred

= Indirect Labor + Property Taxes + Depreciation of Equipment + Maintenance + Insurance + Rent&Building  

= 127,800 + 8,880 + 18,000 + 12,000 + 11,300 + 40,000

= $217,980

Over Applied Overhead = Overhead Applied - Overhead Incurred

= $229,500 - $217,980

= $11,520

Overhead applied is more than overhead incurred, so this situation is called over applied overhead.

3. Cost of Goods Manufactured for the Year

Particular  Amount  ($)

Opening stock of raw material 27,000

Add-purchases of raw material 139,000

Less-closing stock of raw material 13,000

Add-Direct labor 85,000

Add-Manufacturing overhead applied to WIP 229,500

Add-Opening Work in Progress 46,000

Less-closing Work in Progress 36,000

Goods manufacturing cost 477,500

4. Unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold

Particular  Amount ($)

Goods manufacturing cost 477,500

Add-finished goods opening stock 71,000

Less-finished goods closing stock 56,000

Cost of goods sold 492,500

Jane works in the maintenance department, which supports the production department and the research department. Jane's wages are
valina [46]
<h2>Direct to the maintenance department</h2>

Explanation:

Jane here works only in the Maintenance department. The work that he does supports both Production as well as Research. We can calculate the expenses, only by associating the department of the employee.

So, the wages should be directly associated to the maintenance department only.

We cannot add one cost to multiple department and it is not the right approach of accounting system. So the below becomes invalid.

<em>Indirect to the production department Direct to the research department Direct to the production department Indirect to the research department</em>
